Abstract: A variable differential transformer system (10), both linear and rotary (L/RVDT) includes a primary coil (12) drive by a primary drive (20) having a triangle wave generator whose frequency is set by an external frequency control (R osc  and C osc ) which provides compensation for gain temperature error. Secondary coils (14, 16) have a common connection for balanced loading with an input stage arrangement (R7, R8, R9, R10) providing low common mode range and a way to differentiate between normal operation and coil faults detected by a fault detection network (28). Synchronous demodulation (22) extracts both magnitude and direction from the secondary coil signals. Electronic calibration (24) compensates for sensor offset and adjust circuit gain by adding a percentage of the synchronous demodulation reference waveform to the secondary differential voltage. A filter network (26) averages the synchronous demodulated signal in order to extract the DC component of the waveform which is amplified (30) to provide drive current to interface with external loads. A variable rotary core assembly (18) and a variable linear core assembly (18') are shown which allow axial adjustment of the core relative to the coils to provide balancing of the out-of-phase component of the secondary voltage waveform to provide offset temperature error compensation without significantly affecting the in-phase component of the secondary waveform.

Abstract: A computer system comprising at least one applications program, a Unix operating system API, and a WinSock socket driver. The applications program performs predetermined processing operations, and issues Windows operating system calls, including WinSock socket calls. The Unix operating system API provides, in response to Unix socket calls, Unix socket services in connection with at least one socket connection to another computer system over a network. The WinSock socket driver receives WinSock socket calls from said applications program and emulates the WinSock socket calls in connection with Unix socket calls to said Unix operating system API. In emulating at least some of the WinSock socket calls, the WinSock socket driver makes use of Unix socket calls at least some of which block, but effectively controls the computer system to execute such calls in a non-blocking manner.

Abstract: The characteristic determination process is for the mesh of a transmission source which comprises n micro-points (i) situated on a resistive layer and surrounded by a conductive frame with a conductive grid being arranged above the mesh. The analysis involves defining the specifications for this mesh (a) and determining both the emissive capacity of each micro-point (b) and the geometric and physical characteristics of the resistive layer (c). Using a first series of equations (d) it is then possible to express the currents (Ii) circulating in the frame towards each micro-point. Using a second series of equations (e) it is possible to express the currents emitted by each micro-point (i) when a potential difference (VGC) is applied between the grid and the frame. The two sets of equations are equalised in order to determine the optimum characteristics of the mesh, using an iterative process.

Abstract: Purpose 
     An argon recovery and purification process in which the consumption of energy is small because of simple steps, is provided. 
     Means for Solution 
     This process comprises: a first step of reacting impure argon gas with hydrogen gas (H2) so that oxygen (O2) contained in the impure argon gas is converted to water (H2O), thereby substantially removing oxygen (O2) from the impure argon gas; a second step of introducing said impure argon gas into an adsorption means, where said adsoprption means is caused to adsorb water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) contained in said impure argon gas, thereby substantially removing the water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from said impure argon gas; and a third step of subjecting said impure argon gas to a low temperature liquefaction and introducing the liquefied argon into a rectification means, where said rectification means is caused to remove low boiling point impurity components and high boiling point impurity components contained in said impure argon gas by purification and separation, thereby obtaining pure argon gas substantially consisting of argon.

Abstract: Rolled articles such as hot rolled or cold rolled and annealed sheet and/or strip include effective amounts of vanadium in low carbon steels to produce an improved bake hardenable product especially adapted for automotive use. The use of vanadium in the alloy steel chemistry controls bake hardenability, permits solution annealing at lower temperatures in its manufacturing sequence and specifies a composition range which is more easily cast within desired limits and causes less variation in final mechanical properties. Controlling the vanadium to carbon ratio to maintain a value of about 10 or greater also improves aging resistance.

Date Feb. 27, 1997An optical device for homogenizing a laser beam is described. Such a device is commonly used in the surface treatment of an object. The device consists of front lenses that are bonded together to form an assembly of lenses that breaks the laser light into multiple beams. This results in the homogenization of the gaussian profile of the beam intensity as viewed perpendicular to the beam's propagation. Advantageously the matrix of lenses is formed using groves or bevels in a manner that minimizes losses resulting from light impinging on glue disposed upon the entire lateral surface of the front lenses. In the invention gaps between front lenses that cause interference with the light path are eliminated. This gap free bonding is accomplished by filling the groves or bevels with glue, inserting a rod or wire into the grove to assemble the front lenses in a support frame, bonding a grill to assembled front lenses, or by using a combination of gluing with a support frame.
